METAPHORICAL
This is a really strange site, but well worth the time it
takes to figure it out, if you're into things different! You
can play on all sorts of interactive things - distort faces,
scare fish, make weird and fantastic shapes. There are sections
of thoughts that are really "thoughty", simple book
and film reviews and other things that defy classification.
You can look at the programming of the site and play with
some interactive stuff there, too. You may even learn something
about programming if you're so inclined. I spent an hour there
"reviewing" it, even though Faye was waiting for
my article!

IDENTITY THEFT
The title of this site is: "Has some clown taken over
your good name?" This police department knows that Identity
Theft is no laughing matter and provides in-depth coverage
about this topic. I didn't like the sound effect they suddenly
throw in - made me jump - but the content is excellent. This
site needs to be bookmarked so it'll be handy if you ever
need it.

RECALLS
Has a product had a recall notice? If it has, no doubt it
will be listed here. See if your car has had any recalls.

AMERICAN RADIOWORKS
This is the website behind the compelling American RadioWorks
documentary 'The President Calling'. U.S. Presidents John
F. Kennedy, Richard Nixon and Lyndon B. Johnson, for individual
reasons, all chose to secretly bug their own telephone conversations,
the recordings of which offer listeners one of the most exciting
'fly on the wall' experiences in history. I didn't listen
to the recorded excerpts, but found the site interesting anyway.

MARS
Get up and personal with Mars. If there's water, there must
be life. See if you can find any Martians I didn't, but could
fly around and look at things in 3D. Nice site.
